I’m on a mission to use up as much DSP as I can before our new catalog comes out. I’ve got so many cards to show you over the coming weeks. I was so excited about this one I thought I should get the directions up and show it off.  It’s a very simple layout that works with so many of our Stampin’ Up! Stamp sets.   My friend came up with this layout when she was working on another card and we fell in love with how easy it was to use with so many of our stamps.

Paper Cuts:

Whisper White Cardstock cut at : 4 x 2 1/2

Emerald Envy Cardstock cut at 4 1/4 x 2 3/4

In Color Designer Series Paper Stack Emerald Envy Cut to 4 x 5 1/4

Card Base cut at 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4

For the Stamp sets I used the following : 

Balloon Celebration

Swan Lake

Love you Lots

Start by centering your Happy Birthday stamp in the upper middle of your white paper.  From there I stamped the right side Lilly pads then Center your frog stamp.  Once this is done you stamp the left lilly pads and dragonfly.  I used my Copic markers to color this, but our new Watercolor Pencils would work great.  Once you are done coloring layer up your card.  You can also add a 4 x 5 1/4 sheet of white cardstock to the inside with a lillypad on it to make your card look even better.

Below is a list of the supplies :
